Although I couldn't tell you how long the tradition of wearing green uni's has existed for the Dodgers, I do know that this day has always been special for the franchise. The O'Malley's famously hosted a huge party every year starting in 1951 at Dodgertown in Vero Beach for friends, family and employees. Now, some 17 years after the family sold the team this tradition seems like a distant memory.

But in his Cy Young acceptance speech this past offseason, Clayton
Kershaw—Uribe's exact opposite culturally, stylistically, and
personality wise—singled out the third baseman. "Thank you for making me
laugh," Kershaw said. "You are one of the most important people in our
clubhouse."

I have no words. None! Check out Tommy Lasorda singing some song - "Turn down for what" at Instagram, here. I had no idea what this phrase meant (I feel so old) until I looked it up at the Urban Dictionary. Check that out here. After reading that I find this whole thing totally inappropriate.

“There’s nothing like wearing a Dodger jersey. There’s nothing like it in sports. I don’t care that I’ve never been anywhere else. I don’t care. There’s nothing like wearing a Dodger jersey.” -- A.J. Ellis
